J.T. Realmuto, Bo Bichette and negotiating through the media

When the offseason began, it seemed that it was a given that J.T. Realmuto would return to the Phillies. While he was a free agent able to sign with any team he chose, it seemed like he wanted to return to Philadelphia, and the Phillies wanted him back. But we’ve reached January, and Realmuto has […]

NFL Week 18: Early afternoon games discussion thread

The Washington Commanders visit the Philadelphia Eagles later today, but weve got plenty of football to watch before that game kicks off. It’s Week 18 which means weve got a lot of division games on today’s schedule. Fox has three games, and most of the country will be watching the NFC East game between the […]

Flyers’ depth the difference-maker in win over Oilers

The Flyers kicked off their slate of games in this new calendar year yesterday afternoon in Edmonton, and after a pretty abysmal showing in their final game of 2025, they were looking to rebound in a big way. It wasn’t going to be easy, facing off against the top team in the Pacific division and the best player in the game, but the Flyers were able to deliver quite a balanced effort and a largely responsible way, on the way to a commanding 5-2 win over the Oilers. It was a game in which, ...

Cubs historical sleuthing: Don Kessinger edition

1960s era Cubs shortstop Don Kessinger is instantly recognizable in this photo. The Facebook page where I found it helpfully identified the other three people in the photo. The Cubs are obviously playing the Phillies. No. 6 is Cookie Rojas, later a Cubs coach. The other Phillies player is Don Money, and the umpire is […]

Eagles vs. Commanders Week 18 game information

The Philadelphia Eagles are 11-5 heading into their Week 18 season finale against the Washington Commanders (4-12) on Sunday late-afternoon.

Penguins suspend Egor Zamula for failing to report

Egor Zamula is going to have to pay the consequences for his decision making. The Pittsburgh Penguins forward decided he didn't want to report to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the AHL, and has now been suspended by the organization.

76ers 130, Knicks 119: Pounded in the paint

For the second time this season, the New York Knicks (23*-12) have lost three straight games. It’s too early to panic, but measured concern is completely acceptable. In tonight’s first quarter, the Knicks leaned on Jalen Brunson, while the Philadelphia 76ers (19-14) answered with Tyrese Maxey’s unfettered scoring and Joel Embiid’s interior play to take […]

Ex-Flyer Egor Zamula already in trouble after AHL no-show

Zamula has now been suspended by the Pens for a reported failure to report to the team’s minor league affiliate in Wilkes-Barre. The Tribune Review received confirmation from a team spokesman that the suspension is […]

Report: Phillies interested in Bo Bichette

Well now, this type of rumor might change things for the Phillies: This is a fascinating rumor for a few reasons. Bichette himself would be a good fit for the team, theoretically replacing one of Bryson Stott or Alec Bohm (probably Bohm). He’s a big bat the team seems to need another of, his being […]

Oilers had horrible start against the Flyers, four bad games since the break, and the kid line conundrum

The Edmonton Oilers didn’t have anything close to their best when they fell to the Bruins on Thursday night, which made Saturday’s matinee against the Philadelphia Flyers all the more important. Put another way, the Oilers haven’t played their best since coming back from the Christmas break, and it was going to take a lot…

Denver Barkey scores first career goal to open scoring in Edmonton

Denver Barkey is on the board. The Philadelphia Flyers rookie has provided some energy and solid two-way play in his short time in the NHL, but he only had two assists — both recorded in his debut at Madison Square Garden — to show for it. That changed on Saturday afternoon in Edmonton. After some early pressure by the Oilers, it was Barkey who settled things down and opened the scoring in Edmonton. The 20-year-old winger started the breakout in his own end and dashed down the c...
